Great solo LP by Bill Bruford--really shows off his "chops"! Features Allan Holdsworth on guitar--an amazing player as well (and the legendary Jeff Berlin on bass). It put me in the mood to listen to some (jazz/rock) fusion. Here are some other great recordings with Bill....

And a few of my favorite Allan Holdsworth solo LP's

I saw Allan Holdsworth earlier this year at "The Lovin' Cup" here in Rochester, NY. Amazing performance by him and his band (Chad Wackerman was incredible on drums that night--anyone ever heard of him?).....
And while I was in that jazz/rock fusion frame of mind, I dug out a few vintage Brand X LP's--phenomenal band featuring Morris Pert on drums and percussion, John Goodsall on guitar, Percy Jones on bass, Robin Lumley keyboards.....

Yes, that is John Goodsall's autograph on my copy of "Moroccan Roll". A band I used to play in was fortunate enough to open up for Brand X back in the 90's......
Those of you unfamiliar with Brand X, here's a song from one of their LP's (really starts to gel about a minute and a half into it--hang in there ;))
